Invaluable Information Provided!

The information Micaela and Linda provided about securing grants to help fund your children's book business was extremely useful. Prior to this podcast, I didn't know grants were available for authors of children's books. In fact, I never even considered it as an option. My family and I were busy trying to figure out how to budget appropriately without depleting personal funds.

My son is trying to publish his first book. This process is challenging. But as an autistic young man trying to navigate, it can be even more cumbersome. We are trying to assist him learning as we go. This podcast has been extremely helpful as a guide for our next steps!

Wonderful Podcast for Children's Book Authors!!!

I love this podcast, and I was pleasantly surprised to find it! I'm a children's book author, and I just released my 3rd book. It's been a struggle to find content and advice for that specific genre. Most webinars and "how-to market" books and articles are geared towards novels. So happy that I found this show. Lots of helpful tips and ideas specifically for children's book authors. Highly recommend!
